About Me

Warning. If you add me I have the tendency to be a friend for life....Quiet. Simple. No pretentions. Have a high propensity for reading, listening to music and hyper-activity. I don't need much sleep. Too much to explore in the world. Skriv mig and send me book recommendations.Share with me your photographs, ideas, thoughts, and anything. I'm quite an open person just a little too busy (with work).

My Interests

You can get to know me more by reading my blogs. I'll read your blogs in turn. Can't promise I'll understand the way your mind works but will always respond if you write. Some days life crawls at a languid pace but most of my days go by like your first shot of tequila..... Every year people have book recommendations, if you have any that really affected you, kindly share.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone + Knappgoks like me and fine art photographers/collectors.I'll take more photos in 07. I promise.Since I've not had a lot of time to take photos, I've been talking to friends to whisper to me up and coming fine art photography gems from all over the world.Would love to get your recommendations. Any format. Black and White. Mostly contemporary but if you have old photos gathering dust in your attic (let me know too....)

Music:

Still deciding.

Movies:

Recommend some.

Television:

Have pistacho nuts in my pocket most of the time just in case you get hungry and will play trivia with you on movies. I really don't get to watch TV much but books and film that's another story.

Heroes:

Murakami. Doisneau. De Botton. Cartier-Bresson. Erwin Wurn. Too many heroes too little time...

Breakable

Online and offline people have the tendency these days to be overly curt and strong. I think it's part of the changing world; speed, chaos, aimlessness. What I love about Sweden is that you can ...

Study

Someone asked me about graduate studies. Go for it. There's nothing like being isolated from the daily grind to get a fresh perspective. I spoke to a guy who was helping these people from Bangladesh i...

Unnecessary Law of Attrition HIGHLY ILLOGICAL

It simply sucks when you have couple friends and they break up. Common sense will tell you that one should remain friends with both. Suddenly, we can't go to this restaurant because Xman ha...

I miss Boston more so these days. Igor was walking this morning along the Memorial Drive path and chanced to see Japanese icon Haruki Murakami running. He called me right away saying he was run...
